Company Description:
Aircuity is the leading manufacturer of integrated sensing and control solutions that cost-effectively reduce building energy and operating expenses while simultaneously improving its indoor environmental quality. Aircuity's first product, a portable air monitoring system known as OptimaTM, was developed in collaboration with Environmental Health & Engineering, Inc., the primary research contractor for the EPA's Indoor Environments Division. Optima's automated process captures key data points about the air quality from a facility, performs an in-depth and expert analysis of the information, and provides result based outcomes regarding performance and identifies potential areas to be optimized within the facility. Optima earned R&D Magazine's prestigious Technology Award (2002), which annually recognizes the 100 most technologically significant new products and processes.
In February of 2005, a permanently installed version of the portable system was introduced named OptiNetTM. It's patented system provides a centralized sensor platform capable of analyzing a broad array of environmental conditions throughout a commercial building by means of a distributed, multi-point air-sampling network. These continuously sensed environmental parameters are then integrated in to a facility's building management system to optimize the building's ventilation systems for energy efficiency and environmental quality.
OptiNet's game-changing technology of remote sampling with centralized sensing addresses acknowledged deficiencies inherent in conventional approaches to optimizing building ventilation. The result is sensing-based ventilation control that finally delivers on the long-sought promise of buildings designed for both energy efficiency and environmental quality in response to dynamic building conditions at a time when this matters more than ever.
